RED, BUT STILL AN INFLUENCE
vith a feeling of regret that the Michigan
and students must take the resignation of
B. Hinsdale, dean of the Homceopathic
school. For 25 years he has been its head,

ty's eight colleges, it has been an excellent.

have a passport. For some reason two of Michi-,
gan's men were not notified of this until the day of
the finals, and it was thus necessary for them to
spend the entire morning before the meet walking
the streets of Boston to arrange for passports.
That one of the men was unable to use his passport,
for which he spent ninedollars, was apparently of
little consequence to the committee. That there are
other similar incidents, many of them perhaps more
aggravating than the ones cited, can hardly be ques-
tioned.
Of course, some people might not consider these
instances of enough moment for criticism; they
might say that these were the only ones, but to us
they seem sufficient, and we also know of a few
other similar cases which we can cite if called upon.
Although our knowledge is necessarily limited
mostly to Michigan affairs, we know of several sim-
ilar ones, and with so many unfortunate things hap-
pening to the Michigan entrants, it seems impossible
that all the other tryouts could have escaped. How-
ever, the 1920 trials for the American Olympic
team are over, and nothing more can be 'done them.
We do cite these, though, in the hope that the uni-
versities, who supply most of the men, and the grad-
uates of universities, who put up a great deal of
the money, will see to it that the mistakes of 1920
are avoided in 1924, and now is the time to com-
nence.
These reports of a huge wheat crop in the Middle
West get us 'll worked up about a probable decrease
in prices, only to have the pleasure spoiled by the
next paragraph saying that it will take two years
to move the crop.
Some of the people who have been visiting the
summer school between trips to Detroit will un-
doubtedly be surprised and aggrieved to know that
one-half of the session is over.
Plans Under Way
For Next Opera
E. Mortimer Shuter; director of the
last two Michigan Union operas, and
who has been engaged for the 1921
production, is spending the summer at.
Altoona, Pa. Several inquiries have
been received by Union officials from
Mr. Shuter, asking for information
conceri(ing the progress of next year's
book.
Although the book has not been defi-
nitely selected yet, several lyrics and
the librettos from the most promising
one have been sent in. Great interest
is being manifested by Mr. Shuter in
next year's opera, which he hopes to
produce on an even larger scale than
the previous ones.
Edwin H. Kreuger, '21E, composer
of the music for r"George Did It," last
year's opera, is at present at work on
several original songs, which will
probably have a prominent place in
next season's opera.
Russel Barnes, '26, will probably
write a large part of the lyrics for
the coming production. At present he
is working on the staff of the Detroit
News.

ENERGINE ODORLESS CLEANING
Kindly notice how much longer our Energine Cleaning
stays clean over any other cleaning you have had.
The most widely read and highly appreciated ac-
ceptance of the presidential nomination was un-
doubtedly General Grant's; it was about 200 words
long.
Going up the river does not have the same mean-
ing in Ann Arbor that it does in certain constricted
circles of New York life.
Making a slam on a six bid in a game of five hun-
dred is certainly the height of ill-spent effort.

MORE FACTS ON THE MATTER

e of its supposed unsportsmanlike attitude.
;s, indeed, it was unsportsmanlike; it was not

mat upon the mismanagement of the Olympic
s and as an appeal for the universities to see

this, the Athletic association paid the ex-

Editorial Comment
THE 4 PER CENT DISTURBANCE
According to statistics compiled by the federal
department of labor, 3,374 strikes, involving more
than 4,000,000 workers, occurred in the United
States in 1919. Assuming that the 4,000,000 include
only the strikers and their dependents, and such
other workers as were made idle by reason of their
work being intimately connected with that of the
strikers, the tale is not half told.
Some of these strikes, such as the coal miners'
strike, the dock workers' strike, the railroad strike,
and the steel strike, affected more or less directly'
every inhabitant of the country ; and thus all of the
people, numbering something more than 100,000,-'
000, were put to inconvenience, expense, and some-
times exposed to peril because 4 per cent of the total
was not satisfied with its wages or working condi-
tions and knew ,no other way-or, at any rate, re-
fused to recognize any other way-to better the sit-
uation than to strike.
This is a condition that is a credit neither to our
business management nor our public administration.
It is in effect a sacrifice of the interests of the many
to the interests of the few, when there should be
a sacrificeof neither. There are, of course, always
the unreasonable malcontents who will not be satis-
fied with any arrangement, but for the most part
Americans prefer peace and a steady job to the arti-
ficially created industrial unrest of which they are
so frequently made the victims. It is useless to hope
that all men will be able to agree all the time, but
it is wholly possible for them to adjudicate their
differences without resort to the medieval custom
of using force-and the strike or the lockout is
force. Perhaps when the campaign is over, and
the statesmen and politicians can look forward to
a period of two years without urgent political
maneuverings, they can find time to consider the
question of industrial stability with more sincerity
and earnestness than they have given to it hereto-
fore. Probably nothing would do more to bring
about a return of national contentment and assure.
stable prosperity, and to show that the country is
really as civilized as it pretends to be.-Indianapolis
